About Paula S. Josephson-Shulman

Dr. Paula Shulman joined the Santa Monica community in 2012. She has continued to practice the full breadth of Obstetrics and Gynecology, with the goal of providing a fusion of holistic and evidence-based care. She has a particular interest in adolescent health, fibroid management, menopause as well as care for women with twins and those desiring VBAC. A lifelong Angeleno, she graduated from USC, before moving on to UCLA for her medical and public health degrees.

She is looking forward to providing the full range of women’s health services from adolescent to postmenopausal care. She also has a particular interest in minimally invasive surgery, and the medical and surgical treatment of fibroids. Dr. Shulman is also fluent in Spanish.
